Global Youth Work
Bringing Global Citizenship to life, this resource uses six everyday commodities – water, tobacco, chocolate, textiles, mobile phones and food – as a starting point for exploring global interdependencies.
Each chapter contains practical activities, background information and resources aimed at encouraging young people to think about their own lives and how they connect with others. Examining these topics within the framework of social justice, human rights and sustainable development enables young people to reflect on how their behaviour and actions impact on people and issues locally and globally.
